Oh, Sherry! The first couple of shots are just wonderful! the second one showing the thousands of birds in flight, especially!!And I love the lighting in the photo of the cattle egret with lunch, although I am a bit squeamish about his lunch...

Wow, what a fabulous Thanksgiving--the feathered and winged spirits leave me speechless. I'm green with envy. ;) Your month of December sounds like it will be perfect...I'm looking forwarding to many pictures of your trees. :)

I would love celebrating a holiday with the swans. The snow geese are so beautiful in flight. Part of my background is also German/Dutch. We are stalwart (some would say stubborn) people! Lucinda thinks maybe she could be friends with Mammoth and Horsey. She wants to know if they like carrots? I cannot even imagine decorating 4 trees!

What a wonderful way to spend Thanksgiving! The birds are magnificent! This must have been such an awe-inspiring experience. Pumpkin pie sounds like just the right kind of "fuel" to start the day:)

My heritage is German, too, and I've seen examples of the bobbin lace and Scherenschnitte, but I've never attempted either. But I'm amazed at the 54 trees--you are one busy lady! I have two to put up, and neither one is up yet, let alone decorated. Stay warm and enjoy the holidays, Sherry!

You got some wonderful photos! I love the swans...beautiful! You would have laughed at me yesterday. I had on pj bottoms but a regular top...sat down at the computer, looked out the window and saw an eagle! I grabbed my camera and ran outside...who cares if I have flannel pj bottoms on! heehee! It was pretty high in the sky so my photos aren't very sharp...but it gave me a feeling of amazement! ♥

What a wonderful way to spend Thanksgiving. Your photography is beautiful as always. Your post reminds me that we need to try to go to Lake Mattamuskeet in the eastern part of our state this year ~ there are thousands of swans and geese and other waterfowl there.
